Topic: Whats the longest you have waited for one confirmation?? - page 2. (Read 4861 times)
I have waited for over 24hrs in the year 2017 during the high cost of transactions and I am sending just a peanut 0.0015, it just remains unconfirmed and I forget about it until it was later sent. Two things here, mono transaction and a low fee.
I think 5 or 6 hrs from my experience. The USD equivalent of fee that time is very high but I really need to withdraw so I set the fee to lowest. I thought it won't be longer than 2hrs since I've been doing it before but the blockchain that time has a huge number of transactions ongoing.
A few months back, I had to wait for 3 days to get a single confirmation. I was using the Blockchain.com wallet and I put the default fee which was suggested by them. But as soon as I made the transaction, the Mempool size started increasing. The transaction got stuck, and I was left frustrated and angry. I felt bad, because I had put the default fee rather than my own customized fee. Anyway, in the end it got confirmed after three days of wait.
I guess it was 12 hours if I remember it correctly. I was panicking way back then because I thought I did something wrong like I sent it to a wrong address like a not Bitcoin address because I hassle sometimes. But luckily after I woke the next morning, I already received it in my Bitcoin wallet.
Here are some reasons why your transaction gets delayed

I am not sure anybody can bit me. It was more than two weeks. Finally I executed a "child pays for parent" transaction that covered the cost of the new transaction and paid additional fee on behalf of the parent, to have the original (parent) confirmed sooner. It costed me 40 USD total, but it was worth it, the confirmation finally arrived after a block or two...
currently i have waited for 2hrs for confirmation of a transaction i did but it has not yet came.
I have the same problem. I'm waiting for confirmation of payment 2 days. I don't know how to send the payment but when I send my payments are never delayed more than 30 minutes. I think that it also depends on the network load but also by the way sent. I hope that someday this problem will be solved.
I hope so too.
For me it has been one week and a half and still counting. I tried to have a look at BTC transaction accelerator and their quote was 102 USD which is repelling (!). The network load currently is 220k so probably my tx will not be confirmed in another week or two ...
Actually I am starting to feel helpless and I am starting to understand the BTH guys
I'm waiting for 12 hours!

I think it was about 4-5 hours. It was a purchase in a bricks-and-mortar shop.
my longest wait for just one confirmation is around 2 hours
I've seen well in excess of 3 hours.
I don't usually sit and wait for confirmations. I will check back an hour later and transactions are always confirmed.
10 days and one re-broadcast during the period, it's was a non-fee transaction.
Make sure you leave your wallet opened until you get your first confirmation.
Whether you leave your wallet open or not makes no difference for the confirmation time of your transaction. Once you broadcasted it, it's distributed throughout the network in seconds, and from then on it's just waiting until a miner includes it in a block. This happens completely independent from your wallet. 
Currently I have waited 3 hour 
About 4 hours.

so far I always get a deal pretty quickly, and never had to wait too long.
whether determining the shipping costs?

it was always less than an hour for me to get confirmation. but as far as records go, i have a record of an "80 minutes" confirmation on a 0 fee transaction 
3 days. Oh wait, that was just shitty CEX.IO and their crappy errors. Actually I think it was more like 5 days. NEVER USE CEX. They suck. C-Cex is good however. Except when they charged a guy 0.5 btc for the private key to a wallet he accidentially sent his coins to. (the wrong coin)
